About this Event

As you may know, Bill 5 (Protect Ontario by Unleashing our Economy Act, 2025) was passed earlier this year, granting the government sweeping powers to override environmental protections, Indigenous rights, and the rights of the public, all under the guise of protecting Ontario’s economy.
Come hear from the Indigenous grassroots and youth organizers who, together with allies, are calling for the repeal of Bill 5 to protect the land and honour Treaty promises.
November 18 at 7pm (doors 6:45pm)
Centre of Social Innovation, Suite 101
192 Spadina Ave, Toronto
This public event features Ramon Kataquapit, the founder of the Indigenous-youth movement, Okiniwak and environmental lawyer Kerrie Blaise, founder of the environmental law non-profit Legal Advocates for Nature’s Defence (LAND).
Learn about ongoing efforts against Bill 5, and enjoy their new short film featuring faces and stories recorded during their time in the region of Treaty 9 in Northern Ontario where mining and development in the so-called Ring of Fire is proposed.
Questions and dialogue will be encouraged.
Tickets are required as space is limited. Reserve your seat today! Tickets are on a by-donation basis (suggested $25).
